This week has passed in a bit of a blur for me, mostly a painting blur! This time of year I turn into a one-woman factory, churning out personalised gifts! Santa's elves have nothing on me!
But I did shoe-horn in a bit of card making time. Valentine's cards, no less, for Craftseller magazine. It feels odd to be so wrapped up in Christmas orders one minute and making Valentine's cards the next!
I got my sewing machine out for this one!
I'm keeping it short and sweet this week so I can get back to the sweatshop. Well, it's actually more like a fridge than a sweatshop until the logburner kicks in, but you get the idea, I'm sure.
It's your turn now - what's been happening in your world?
Hi Wendy, I love this card design...really 3D with the pop out hearts. I wish you a wonderful holiday filled week!
ReplyDeleteOooh that card looks so pretty! I imagine it was a nice change from Christmas Christmas Christmas...! x
ReplyDeleteIt's a really busy time, it's funny that we all know that Christmas is coming but lots of people leave things till the last moment, me included :)
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure I'll get a post done for this weeks HM, if I don't I'll try and pop around to as many as I can :)

Love the Valentines Card design - really nice:) empathise with the production line (hence no blogging on my part last week, one thing too many!), have a good week, Vicky
ReplyDeleteI love your valentines design. I'll have to keeo an eye out for that edition of Craftsy☆
ReplyDeleteEveryone's posts are looking so Christmassy this week. Really helping to put me in the mood :-)
ReplyDeleteI love hearts and they feature in most of my drawings usually as a pair.
ReplyDeleteI hear ya! -- It's just Me, my *STASH* and the DUSTBUNNIES down in The CRAFT-CAVE [aka my 55F Basement-Bedroom] just finishing up Stuff for THE FAMILY... I'm done with the CRAFT-SHOWS for *this* Season, but already "planning" for NEXT Year's *possible* STUFF! -- Meanwhile, I'm also still waiting for a Postcard from THE ELVES... They never did say *where* They were going... Although, the gaudy "ALOHA"-Shirts They were last seen in, could be a *CLUE*..?!
ReplyDeletemust be so strange thinking about Christmas and Valentines at the same time! Really like your hearts design x
ReplyDeleteTrying to keep up with orders at this time of year is really hard and thinking (and making) about future events makes it even tougher. Love the hearts. Hope you have a good week.
ReplyDeleteWell I sold a lot of crochet animals - owls were very popular. other than that just running around like a headless chicken!
ReplyDeleteThank You for hosting :)
ReplyDeleteI'm new the party and have really enjoyed visiting everyone today.
Welcome Tracy! It's good to hear you are enjoying your visiting!
ReplyDeleteI still haven't got into the crafter's habit of thinking one celebration ahead. Valentine's Day. Really!
